Then Abram said to Lot, 'Please let there be no strife between you and me, and between my herdsmen and your herdsmen, for we are brothers.

'Is not all the land before you? Please separate from me. If you take the left, then I go to the right; or, if you go to the right, then I go to the left.'

And Lot lifted his eyes and saw all the plain of the Yarden, that it was well watered everywhere - before YHWH destroyed Sedom and Amorah - like the garden of YHWH, like the land of Mitsrayim as you go toward Tso'ar.
